 December 2 thru December 11, 2004 Exhibition of Sake Vessels and Tableware
 Sake cup and flask by Yamashiro Tateshi
 Yamashiro Tateshi
 Sake plays an integral role in the traditions of Japan. On New Year's Day, we often enjoy sake from ceramic sake vessels, including cups (guinomi or sakazuki) and flasks (tokkuri). For this particular exhibition, we asked Yamashiro (1948 - ) to create sake utensils and tableware that complement one another. The artist works in Tamba, one of the original "Six Old Kilns" of Japan, and makes works utilizing traditional techniques and glazes, namely within the styles of Mishima-de, Ki-Seto, Hakeme and Hikidashi-guro.
This exhibition will run from December 2 to December 11. Please note that Yufuku gallery will be closed on Sunday and Monday.
